Basically a fruit is the part of the plant that contains the seeds. Vegetables are the rest of the plant (stem, leaf, root)
According to botanists (those who study plants) a fruit is the part of the plant that develops from a flower. It’s also the section of the plant that contains the seeds. The other parts of plants are considered vegetables. These include the stems, leaves and roots — and even the flower bud.
